Locking in for Wednesday’s APWH exam 🫡

I HAVE TO LOCK IN

I looked at my class' leq notes, and it was basically your lesson in a slideshow. Thank you for enlightening everyone.

lock in tomorrow 😆

Nothing like some last minute APUSH studying 🤣

You have taught me the most about writing than any other sources for this class. It's been great to see what I can write using your methods compared to my old style. Thank you Heimler, I really appreciate it.

gl to all the bros with an LEQ tmrw 💪💪

You’re the reason I’m passing APUSH and passed APWH, thank you my good sir

Hey Steve! Like most people, my APUSH teacher brought me here as I have an LEQ on historical period 7 tomorrow 🥲 But, what also brought me here was seeing you appear my school’s newspaper! I read a full Q and A interview and it blew my mind how passionate you are about educating history but also learning in itself. It’s pretty inspiring when you see an educator who truly loves what they do :D My favorite part was when you mentioned how there are few other professions where one can receive as much praise for their work as yours, and how it’s a gift, and also how you’d love for high schoolers to see the beauty in poetry (😅 which makes me realize I’ve only ever read Edgar Allen Poe’s The Raven) Thus, I really felt inclined to praise you for your historical and relevant content that nearly everyone in my school refers to when we need help, and also to tell anyone else who reads this that you’re a genuine dude who responds quickly to the curiosity of a high school paper 👍 thank you Heimler’s History!

i wish it was more intuitive lol. It would be so much easier if they honestly just "held our hands" by simply having questions about what they want for each step so we can answer it directly, but where each question basically builds up on each other one to just basically be an LEQ. I usually always do wonderful on the MCQ but it always has to be the LEQ or DBQ to mess me up in my classes. Im just going to use this format I made, and I will put it here in case anyone else finds it helpful. 1) Introduction A)What is the historical context of the time period in question (1920s-1940s)? B)What were some of the major developments, events, or trends that characterized this time period? C) What is the specific prompt that you will be addressing in your essay (e.g. "To what extent did the Great Depression and the New Deal transform American society and politics in the 1930s?")? 2) Thesis and roadmap A) What is your thesis statement, which should directly respond to the prompt and preview your main arguments? B) What are the main arguments that you will be making to support your thesis? 3) Body paragraphs A) What is your topic sentence for the first body paragraph, which should introduce one of your main B) arguments and provide evidence to support it? C) What specific historical evidence (e.g. events, documents, statistics) can you use to support your argument? D) How does this evidence illustrate continuity or change over time within the time period? E) What is your analysis or explanation of how this evidence supports your argument and contributes to your overall thesis? F) How does this argument relate to the next argument you will be making in the next body paragraph? Conclusion A) What is your restated thesis, which summarizes your main arguments and addresses the prompt one final time? B) What is the significance of your analysis and argument for understanding the historical context and period in question? C) What are some broader implications or potential future developments that could result from the continuity or change you have identified?

I literally have an leq tomorrow for AP World 😢 thanks for this video, your whole channel is the reason I'll pass this class :)

I just got a flashback to last year's APUSH LEQ with those prompts LOL. I'm in AP World now and I got a 3 on the APUSH exam last year but man I was so done by then that I just wrote some garbage about gold God and glory for that first prompt and somehow walked away with college credit.

I didnt beleive him when he said to makr the time period, but today i actually caught myself almost writing about a century later than the prompt. Thanks Heimler, you saved me!

the ap test is tomorrow and i still haven’t written an leq the whole year😭

My teacher assigned an LEQ a while back and it's due tmrw for me. This video helped extremely, thanks a lot!

ATP it’s in gods hands

Lord help me. It’s an hour before exam time.

Greatest free ball coming up tmr

leq on my midterm tomorrow and my teacher never explained how to write one lmao. this is great!

my history teacher has not really done anything to prepare kids besides mentioning once in the beginning of the year there's a book we can check out. ur my lifeline for longterm studying atp

I'm scared because I can tell that my teacher is a really easy grader on essays. He always gives me a really good grade with no constructive criticism and I'm worried that if I don't get any criticism I won't actually do well on the AP exam because I don't know what I need to change and practice.

are we cooked guys

2 days

Heimler, you are my life saver. Ap World is my first Ap class and you helping

Good luck you guys!!

grinding for the apwh test tomorrow 💪

Bro my LEQ is tomorrow- TYSM SIR IM REALLY GRATEFUL

Heimler is just as good looking as he is good teaching

cramming hard rn

We didn’t even have a teacher almost the entire year and the exam is next week 😭

So everyone’s here cram studying the day before your Leq, right?

who's ready to fail tomorrows exam!

Gotta lock in for the 40 mcq and leq test

I have my ap euro exam tomorrow and my teacher never talked about an leq really(mostly dbq and mcq) so this video helps. Im so stressed as I’m not good under time and writing 😭

Who else watching a hour before the exam?

Heimler has a titanium back after carrying all our grades

locking in for tmrw chat

Russell really got me watching a tutorial

I literally took this test and got a 1/7

Night before the exam and my teacher still hasn't taught us how to write an LEQ 🤕

Guys we making it out with this one

lock in

Who else is cooked tomorrow?

Arghhhhhhh 😭😭😭 why did i take this class

I regret taking ap world 😔

just to clarify; a question in terms of evidence. so each paragraph needs 2 pieceS of evidence correct? and having 1 piece of evidence per body paragraph is not sufficient, despite having 3 paragraphs (3 pieces of specific evidence for each one)?

me watching the video pretending im paying attention but actually just watching the light blue line move around a box

Well, count me in

Bout to cook

Whos here the day before?

wish me luck

exam tmrw thx gang

lock in gentlemen

i have an LEQ in a couple hours, hope this will help me

thanks! so helpful

Watching this 2 hours before..

Time to lock in for next period

Do you have any advice to feel better in the days before the exam? Like I have a horrible looming feeling that I'm going to fail and I'm going to be really upset with myself if I do, but none of this course sticks with me. All I'm good at is world war 2 and that's not a large portion of the test. I'm going to every after school review, asking why the right answers are what they are, applying the new ways of thinking I'm learning, but I'm not doing much better than before and I'm panicking.

does the counterargument need its own paragraph?

I’m your counter argument that you situated in your thesis, you have acknowledged another pov of the evidence you are using (another interpretation) but you are not convinced it is the best way to interpret they evidence. Must be seen through our essay not in one spot gotta provide specific historical evidence

Its midnight and i gotta prep

Love you man!

Not me at 1am the day of the test

Sup Mr. Johnson

Thankyou kind sir

1:13 the college board tells us a head of time? does that mean the time period changes every year?

I AM IN TEARS I RAPID FIRED ALL YOUR STUDY VIDEOS DONT EVEN KNOW THE STRUCTURE TEST IS IN A HOUR 😔😔

Gotta lock in, in like an hour 😭
